Enterprise Web 2.0 with EGL

This book shows a way forward in the development of secure enterprise software. The authors describe the business implications of Web 2.0--a set of techniques for user collaboration on the Web--and describe how the EGL computer language makes developers more productive, protects a company's investment in existing software, and facilitates use of Rich Internet Applications.

In addition, the book provides an overview of Web security. Enterprise Web 2.0 with EGL introduces a variety of concepts that are essential for understanding modern computing, including service-oriented architecture, cloud computing, and agile development; demonstrates how EGL handles widespread requirements such as service creation, database access, and reporting; and outlines the runtime technologies supported by EGL, including Java Enterprise Edition, Windows, IBM i, Unix, and the mainframe environments CICS, IMS, and z/OS batch.

Enterprise Web 2.0 with EGL is useful for:

Executives-managers-and architects who seek a creative-long-term response to the complexity of application development
